A consultant paediatrician based in the Bon Secours in Cork has pleaded with the public to adhere to Covid-19 guidance, after revealing the total burnout her and other healthcare workers are facing.

In a series of tweets, Dr Niamh Lynch said she was "wrecked" and asked if there was any gas left in the tanks of healthcare workers, home carers, and cocooners.
